    FLAC Levels 1-8

    No they are just different levels of data compression. Flac works in a similar way to a zip archive file. It’s lossless compression but you can alter the level of compression applied to make files smaller. It takes more cpu to encode the higher compressed ones, decoding is the same on any.

    WiiM Ultra launch price

    Still has no USB audio out for those who prefer the clock to be owned by the DAC not the streamer. Without a decent chipset for this I can’t see this being Ultra. If it had this and allow higher than 192/24 and you will clean up at any of those prices. As the nearest would be the Eversolo at...

    How do I play Apple Music?

    To achieve this you need to have an Apple home device to setup the automation. Without this you are limited to airplay as home does very little without a HomePod or Apple TV. You can’t create scenes. I imagine the HomePod or Apple TV is sending the stream to the Wiim. The Wiim itself has no way...

    Reset didn’t change a thing. I have put in a ticket so something odd about my unit and lms.

    Can’t stream from lms

    Rebooted, network plays every other type of stream, Roon, airplay, chromecast, tidal connect, UPnP. Squeeze works on every other device just not the Wiim. Got Roon to stream to it over squeezelite but it doesn’t show anything in the Wiim app at all can’t remember if that’s normal or not? As...

    Can’t stream from lms

    Just set up a new lms server all else is working fine to other Squeezlite endpoints but my Wiim Pro Plus doesn’t work. I use to use it via Squeezelite before the pro plus became Roon Ready and it worked, so odd as to why it won’t work via lms itself. Anyone else got any issues? If I send an...

    Room Correction Beta firmware for WiiM Pro, Pro Plus and Amp - User Testing Experience

    Support for external mics is a must, also to set a range to correct for. Personally I dont correct above 300hz as you getting more into speaker voicing terriortty over Room modes. I dont want to change the voice of my speakers as thats why I bought them.

    Room Correction Beta firmware for WiiM Pro, Pro Plus and Amp - User Testing Experience

    One thing it should not is allow boosts in the lower regions, boosting a null isnt going to work and can cause more issues than its trying to solve. Needs a cuts only option.

    Room Correction Beta firmware for WiiM Pro, Pro Plus and Amp - User Testing Experience

    As Andorod doesnt have a known entity for the mic as there are too many makes and models, I cant see it being possible hence why HouseCurve is iOS only, Sonos own system is iOS only. iOS mics are a known entity that can be programmeed for, compensated/calibrated to a certain degree as their are...

    Please add full Apple Music support!!!

    I don’t believe the api allows access to hires at all only aac. Also it really isn’t suitable for hardware. Hifirose attempt at Apple Music integration uses it, it’s chunky, buggy and all authentication has to be done via Apple Music app and this has to be done often. Webapi really is for web...

    Just tried out Plexamp

    Adding support for Wiim to show as PlexAmp client would be a real coup as not many out there apart from Lumin it using a Raspberry pi or phone/tabelt. Its interface is the next best after Roon and it has some great features. Been a PlexPass customer for many years as use it for video all the...

    Integrating Music Services

    Plex has 2fa you have to enable it on the account. It also has only allow secure connections which should be on. I believe it still needs the port forwarded for the server in the router. It’s never connected to mine when that’s not active. Do you have UPnP on your router

    Loudness mode (Equal-loudness contour, or Fletcher–Munson curves)

    I can see this as being useful to the Wiim amp as it has proper amplification. The streamers pointless as they do not and it’s not going to have any idea of what the volume is on the amp side. Loudness is for amplifiers not streamers. The RME dac as it as it’s also a high quality digital preamp...

    WiiM Pro Plus and Logitech Harmony Ultimate Hub...

    The BT codes would have to be supplied by Wiim I can control my fire tv and nvidia shield via bt from the Harmony Hub. Just tried to add the WPP and got this screen.

    The end of my discovery…. Please read

    Yes there can be differences but its LUF targets nothing more for the lossless services. Each service requires different loudness mastering so they can apply their normalisation Different volume levels will always show as sq differences even when the sources are exactly the same. Other than that...

    Firmware v.5.0.604350 released

    If you mess with the digital signal in any way it’s no longer bit perfect.

    Firmware v.5.0.604350 released

    Not necessarily. If it’s applied as DSP it’s on the digital side. They have added this feature to all the range and volume is all DSP on streamers, logic would dictate it’s the same implementation on all units but I could be wrong and the amps is different.
